MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
Today, we will begin to look at the life of another Bible character, Jochebed, whose life’s lessons have lots to teach us.
Jochebed was the daughter of Levi, the wife of Amram and the mother of the three glorious children that shook Egypt: Moses, Aaron and Miriam. The name Jochebed means God’s glory. What lessons can we learn from her?
Jochebed was sensitive to the Spirit of God. She, by the Spirit, saw something in her newborn son. She saw that he was a glorious child and not one to be thrown into the river of the Egyptian god. When others were throwing away their babies into the Nile river, she saw something different. “And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months” (Exodus 2:2). Right from the first day of birth, she SAW. Mothers, what do you see in your children? Fathers, what do you see? Note that she didn’t just see what she saw by the physical eyesight. Flesh and blood didn’t reveal what she saw to her. The things of the spirit cannot be perceived by mere eyesight. She saw by the spirit and she was sensitive to what the spirit said and revealed. Probably if she didn’t see, she too might have thrown her Moses away as many other mothers did. But she SAW. How far can you see Beloved? I pray that God will release the miracle of opened eyes on us all, in Jesus’ Name. Parenting is not a task to be taken in the flesh. We need the Spirit of God to help us to know how to guide our children through life. We dare not rely on our own head knowledge. We need to be sensitive to the Spirit of God and ask God for opened eyes.
What can you see, Beloved? Your vision determines your actions and directions. A lot of people have thrown good people and relationships in their lives away due to lack of discernment. Some have missed those they should meet and met those they should miss. Some have gotten angry with their helpers and deliverers simply because they cannot SEE beyond the immediate. May we not throw away our Moses for lack of sensitivity, in Jesus’ Name.
MORNING
- My Father, open my eyes, in the Name of Jesus.
- Spirit of discernment, my life is available, fall upon me, in the Name of Jesus.
- As I go out today, I shall be at the right place at the right time meeting the right people, in the Name of Jesus.
EVENING
- I shall not meet those I should miss, in the Name of Jesus.
- I shall not miss those I should meet, in the Name of Jesus.
- I shall not throw my Moses away, in the Name of Jesus.
- If I have missed my helpers, mercy of God, bring them back to me, in the Name of Jesus.
